Has anyone with a beard managed to register for online banking when photo recognition is required?

 

With KrungThai I get nothing but "Can't see your chin" and "Can't see your mouth". I assume the problem is the beard. Since KTB do not have a website to do banking and I can not get their app to work I plan on closing the account.

 

Except that will take too long in the bank so I'll just run the account down to B10 and they can close it for me.

Good reminder. Haven't shaved for two days 😊

(I go as no beard)

 

Seriously: visit the branch and ask about an exemption.

SCB led me through a procedure to confirm that no limit applies on my own risk.

Until now I have not got a notice from Kasikorn about facial recognition.

Only with Bangkok Bank it works after they reworked the procedure.

Thanks KhunBENQ -

 

With KrungThai I can not register for online banking with the mobile app - and they have closed their web based internet banking.

 

Bankgok bank says turn off WiFi, but using mobile data they can not recognize my phone number. Probably because I use an eSIM that does not have a phone number and goes via HongKong or else I use my UK data. I don't have data in Thailand as I never need it, except (it seems) for BKK bank app. At least their web based banking still works.
